                                While vitamin K is vital for blood clotting and bone health, its toxicity is extremely rare and primarily affects newborns. The synthetic form, menadione (vitamin K3), is the only type definitively linked to overdose symptoms, but it is no longer used in human supplements. For most adults, natural vitamin K intake is regulated by the body, making it difficult to consume an excessive amount from diet alone.
